DESCRIPTION:
Side view of the tongue with the mandible and cheeks removed.
The tongue is one of the richest centers of nerve activity in
the body. It has nerves that cause it to move (motor nerves),
nerves that mediate taste (special sense), and nerves that allow
us to feel pain, pressure, temperature, or merely touch (general
sensation). The special sense nerves include the facial nerve (CN
VII) and the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX). The taste fibers to
the tip of the tongue are carried by the facial nerve. Taste
fibers to the posterior tongue are carried by the
glossopharyngeal nerve, which also provides sensory innervation
to the back of the throat.
